Review of Birdsong by Callandor

22 November 2024

Big Bird reference!

Prerequisites: None needed.

Birdsong is a fairly alright opener, although I can't say it wasn't a little underwhelming. The premise is very solid, as the crew finds a planet seemingly devoid of a presence beyond that of two women and their bickering. Unfortunately, I didn't find either Myra or Bex to be interesting characters, and as such none of the subsequent twists and turns in the story really grabbed me. The ending was quite nice though, I'll give it that. I also wish there was more actual conflict between Helen and Liv here, because it seemed like a perfect setup to have that. Still, this was a fine story, just nothing essential.
